The IDF issues a new evacuation order for Palestinians in the Khan Younis area in the southern Gaza Strip, following recent rocket attacks.

Col. Avichay Adraee, the IDF’s Arabic-language spokesman, publishes a list of the zones that need to be evacuated.

The announcement calls for Palestinians in the Khan Younis suburb of al-Qarara to evacuate to the Israeli-designated humanitarian zone.

The IDF is currently carrying out an offensive in Khan Younis.

Before the raid, the IDF issued evacuation orders for other areas of Khan Younis. It has since issued several more evacuation orders in the area.
